Awesome - thanks for this and your work! I'd love to hear a bit more about the production of these sort of things (any "behind the scenes" info etc) if you have any interesting stories and time to share them here ... I am sure I would not be alone :-)


Thanks, I'll get a blog together!


Thank you for this, and all of your work. There are many places you've shot and produced like this that we will never be able to get to, and this is a true joy to spend time in.


Super cool, can you explain a bit how you make these?


Here is a review of one of systems that does this:

For the Matterport scans specifically, I used a Matterport Pro 2 camera here: https://matterport.com/cameras/pro2-3D-camera and for the photogrammetry, a capture process similar to this: https://medium.com/realities-io/getting-started-with-photogr... Writing up more details into a blog.

For some more about what we do in general in the digital humanities for preserving cultural heritage, there's some info at my startup's website also! https://archimedes.digital/
